A-Rod returns as a guest Shark in episode 918 as four new businesses seek investment capital for their ventures. Husband and wife team Ondrea Siniari and Marques Fernandez want a sweet deal for The Dough Bar, their protein bars disguised as doughnuts that let folks have a guilt-free “cheat treat.” College student Martin Dimitrov pitches SnapClips, an innovative weight collar he invented while in high school. Daniel Stelmach and Nick Skrzyniarz hope to leave the Tank with more than just change for ChangEd, their app that helps pay off student loans faster. Wendell Hunter, Wale Forrester and Justin Forsett look to clean up with the Shower Pill, their athletic body wipes for when you need a shower but don’t have the time.
Which business lands a Shark?
Back in season five, John Tabis left the Tank with no deal for The Bouqs Company. Their specialty was sending on-demand flowers from an Ecuadorian volcano. Tabis wanted to make buying flowers a better experience because, as he put it, “buying flowers online sucks.” In the summer of 2016, Robert had Bouqs do the flowers for his wedding and then invested in the business. Tonight, we’ll see how the company is doing.
There are 28 Shark Tank Episodes for Season 9. This season features more appearances by “guest Sharks,” including billionaire Sir Richard Branson. The 200th episode also airs this season. Casting is currently closed, but it never hurts to get a head start on season ten! If you would like to appear on the show, check out our Auditions and Casting information.
Episode 918 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 918 entrepreneurs will make their best pitch to the panel of five Shark investors who will use their own money if they choose to invest. The Shark Investors negotiate on the spot without any previous information, which differs from typical negotiations between venture capital investors and entrepreneurial start-ups.
Companies pitching the Shark Investors must go through a rigorous due diligence process before an on-air deal is completed. Shark Tank Blog follow ups help you keep track of the companies that end up successful and the ones that don’t complete their deal.
